Hi there, I have purchased a shared ownership new build and moved one week ago.
The shared ownership Housing Association has told me the builders are coming in this week and I should have a list of snagging items ready for them. Can't say I have ever done this, but have been around the house and found the following issues. Do these all seem ok, or are some of them not worth the bother?
Several hinges have screws protruding where they have not been screwed in fully and many have pozi sheared off:
Lots of yellow marks on almost all skirting boards, I am assuming from some sort of adhesive which was applied to it to protect carpet when painting? Doesn't seem to be scrubbing off.
Damage to some of the double glazing window panels
Only one bedroom door has a door stopper, both bathroom and other bedroom door do not.
Quite a few issues in bathroom with sealant not being applied, blue colouring in silicone sealant that doesn't wash off, and ends to tiles that don't look quite right
Chips and marks on some doors which does not wash off
Ceiling craks and screw pops on both bedroom ceilings
Access panels not secured to wall
Rubber seal compromised on glazed door
Door step grazed and scratched to hell and weatherproofing rubber strip damaged
Carpet in lounge is not secured where lounge finishes and wooden step below french doors start resulting in carpet curling back slightly and underlay being visible
There are a few others which don't need pics such as window handles not working, so windows can't be opened, media panel in lounge hanging off of wall, paint splatters all over kitchen appliances, and a shower which often gives out cold water even though taps are fine, so thermostat related issue.
Any help on this would be great.
